Hiya! Wellz, I got a review… I GOTZ A REVIEW! YAYZ! Thank you SOOOOO MUCHIE! And, portals? … Nah, it'd make their job too easy. XD But, I'm certainly glad you like Luna! And not sound like some random ad, but she's in my other Fanfic, Shadows Around Us. And (Yes, more) I've decided that, I'll be finishing every story I have in order, therefore; this will come first. Nothing else updated until this is finished. Sorry, I'm stressing myself WAAAY too much. Also (At least I changed the word) I'm sorry if the last chappy left you confused, I haven't updated this in forever… So I kinda forgot what I was doing… But, I'm back now, so fingers crossed it comes out right!
They gasped at what lie beyond the door. Stairs, they mumbled, turning just in time to see their imp slave driver's jaw drop. Luna growled, letting her anger rumble from her throat. Link heaved a sigh and started the trek, glancing behind to make sure they were still following. Midna had obviously come back to the shadows, as she was no longer visible, and Luna was allowing a very dark air around her.
Their annoying climb was short lived, to their relief, and yet another door eagerly awaited them. Link swung it open, holding it as his partner sulked through, her bangs covering over her eyes and her stance reading frustration. Although, he couldn't quite understand why…
Now, the only thing in front of them was a few short steps, each one getting more intricate as they went along. The 'climb' didn't seem to bother them as a ladder stared them in the face, daring them to climb even more. Daring them to open the door that lie waiting at the top, taunting them with a large shell lock and chains. "Seems we'll need a key…" Luna muttered, glancing about for the tell-tale chest.
Link hummed a response, dully glancing around at the incoherently blank room. He spotted the chest, covered in cob-webs and tucked away in the corner. He kicked it open and reached in, triumphantly pulling out a slightly rusted silver key. He shoved it in the lock and opened the door, trying his best not to let onto the unexplained frustration spreading through the room.
They stepped in, finding that they'd reached the outside of the upper Zora's Domain. A very carefully painted mural was spread across the ground, one large triforce in the middle catching the sun. A seemingly carved cliff jutted out over Lake Hylia, giving the perfect view of the province and lake attractions.
Link, no longer thinking of what he was doing, rushed over to the triforce. He stood in the center, not wavering as the shadow of a triforce appeared in front of it, mimicking the original. While oddly drawn Hylians flocked around the first triforce, Shadows of particular repulsiveness danced about the copy.
Luna instinctively mirrored Link's movements, walking into the center of the shadow. A low rumbled sounded and the torrent of rushing water filled their ears, making them finally jumped from their places. They made their way to the bluff, peering over the edge, only to find themselves staring into the mouth of a whirl-pool.
Link stared, dumbstruck at the sight. "What..." He paused, shaking his head and standing up. "What good could that have done?" He questioned, mostly to himself although he caught the glint in his partners eyes. She stared for several more seconds before letting out a sigh and rolling her shoulders.
"We jump in." She stated, trying not to let fear edge into her voice. Link nearly lashed out at her, trying to figure out what had caused her to go insane so quickly. He took another look at the swirl of water at least sixty feet below them, then back at Luna, hoping she would admit it was a joke.
Of course she never faltered, never said another word. She simply walked up to the edge and turned back to him. "Trust me." She mumbled, shuffling her feet as she stole another glance over the edge, trying to be as convincing as she hoped to sound.
Link opened his mouth, wanting so badly to protest, but he second guessed himself and shut his lips. Standing on top of that deadly bluff he felt rather... Stupid. Like he'd just agreed to jumping off a cliff into certain doom, and had done so without argument! After all the way they'd come and he was about to put it all in this one jump? This one little thing that could completely kill them, just because Luna had said they should? For all he knew she could've lost too much blood in the battle from earlier that day and was going on delusions!
But, with all these thoughts piling up inside him, here he was. Standing on the edge of a cliff. Looking at his partner, who he could have sworn was shaking. Although, she'd never be shaking, it must have been a trick of the light. No words were exchanges due to uncertain voices, simple glances, nods, and a twinkle in their eyes and they jumped.
They shut their eyes against the rush of the wind and plummeted into whatever fate lie beyond the black, swirling abyss. It was the most amazing, yet horrid, sensation they'd ever experienced. They fell straight into the center, not a splash was made and no impact felt, for all they knew the lake closed behind without sound nor trace and they were now locked in what should be underwater.
Their lungs ready to burst they finally took in a forced breath, finding themselves shocked when the breathed in air, not liquid. They never felt a thing and were breathing normally, although an awful darkness was closing around them, shutting off every last sense hey had and smothering them into unconsciousness.
The last thing that could be heard was an undying, settle. Drip. Drip. Drip...
I'm SOOOO TIRED! PLEASE REVIEW BEFORE I FALL ASLEEP! *Faints*
